The Kildare lad from First Dates Ireland didn't actually go to Coppers after all
LAST NIGHT, FIRST Dates Ireland made its long-awaited debut.
The most talked about date of the night? That would be Darryl and Amy.
The pair seemed to get on like a house on fire during the date, but Darryl decided afterwards that they were better off staying friends and pretty much angered the whole nation.
Whoops!

And he didn’t exactly endear himself when he directed the taxi driver to take him to Coppers.
Whoops!

This afternoon, Darryl appeared on Newstalk’s Moncrieff to give his side of the story and shed a little light on why he declined to go on a second date with Amy.
Firstly, Darryl told Sean Moncrieff that he did initially fancy Amy and thought they might have a bit of potential…
So what went wrong?
When asked about the atmosphere afterwards between himself and Amy, he replied that he could “feel aggression in the air” and described it as “tense”.
Eek.
Over the past 24 hours, Darryl has been on the receiving end of some fairly harsh tweets and he told Moncrieff that he didn’t really understand the reaction.
He also told Moncrieff that his poor Mam thought the reaction was “over the top”.
D’aw.
The most startling revelation of all, though? HE DIDN’T GO TO COPPERS.

The lesson here? Don’t believe everything you see on telly. (Still #TeamAmy, though.)
